How NOLa. Got The Favors of Sim League Gawds

[NOLa.]

Training camp can be brutal, we have known this since the 1991 offseason and every offseason after we get a friendly reminder of how cruel it can be. Stars fade, young rookies never play their first NBA game before their bright futures fade even faster. This training camp was no different than the rest.

So how did I prepare for what is being called The Red Training Camp? Did I spend hours sitting on the best optimal training camp numbers to fit in 25 points? Did I study previous training camps? Did I read ku's still amazing Training Camp detail analysis?

None of the above.

I have resorted to a higher power: the sim league gawds. I have called upon them before since Season 2, begging for mercy. Nothing seemed to work other than drafting high potential rookies and hoping they survive. It's a gamble, and what does an owner have to do in order to put his faith in higher powers greater than him?

I fasted. Took a page from the Bible and from 5pm yesterday to 5pm today, 24 hours until the deadline for training camp. I ate nothing all day, and where that doesn't sound like much at all, temptation certainly creates trials and challenges.

I was mocked on Skype. Told to eat, that I "am a crazy mofo" by Inner GI. LoCo sent me pictures of some amazing looking food during what was suppose to be my lunchtime. MEATLOAF was served at a cafeteria a building away from me. Everywhere young NOLa. went, mockery and trials ensued.

But I stuck with it. I gave status reports every hour on the hour from 9am to deadline. 'Shutup" they said. I was even reversed-karma by Darth. I kept pushing, hoping Arenas or McGrady didnt suffer the same fate as many had before.

I conquered training camp through faith and remaining pure.

I am ready.

Anyone can get in on this. Some are thinking of jumping on this, but probably not going to follow through.

Not for the mentally weak. Its a pain.

So alcohol is okay?
